Carego International improves the health status of underserved
populations by advancing healthcare delivery through both innovative
modular facilities and cloud-based IT solutions. While working to bring
turnkey clinics and hospitals to countries like Kenya in the mid 2000’s,
CEO Steve Landman found that existing medical software used by hospitals
wasn’t compatible with local needs, largely due to complexity and an
inability to tolerate frequent Internet service outages common in
developing regions.

After an initial effort using Salesforce.com failed to meet requirements
and translation needs, Carego turned to the Progress
Pacific application development platform. Using the visual
development and cloud capabilities of the Progress Pacific solution, the
company built Carego Complete, an integrated, cloud-based electronic
health records (EHR) Practice Management application that automates
clinical, hospital and business processes for small clinics to large
hospitals. The low-cost, easy-to-deploy and manage solution reduces
redundancy and errors, while improving productivity and quality of
patient care. It also enables the organization’s ability to capture
massive amounts of valuable data that would otherwise go undocumented.

Carego Complete helps medical organizations streamline operations with
its intuitive and user-friendly features, which include patient
scheduling, charting and history, electronic prescriptions, referral lab
tests, billing and more. Because Carego customers operate in developing
areas around the world, it is critical that the Progress solution
enables Carego Complete to function anywhere, and with minimal
management complexity. Carego is currently using Progress Pacific
software to add mobile functionality in future releases of the
application for its existing clientele worldwide.

Steve Landman, CEO at Carego International, said, “By providing
administrative and clinical staff with complete and immediate access to
patient health information, our clients can expedite, personalize and
improve the quality of care for underserved people around the world.
Adoption has been a success everywhere it has been implemented because
the Progress Pacific platform has helped us make and deploy a solution
that is intuitive and easy to explain.”

example of how the cloud and rapid application development technology
can produce real-world benefits for millions of people in an impactful
way. The SaaS model that Carego has adopted with the Progress Pacific

perspective it has helped them go to market 50 percent faster than they
would have been able to with another platform.”
